Zfever MAY do it, although they specialize in Z cars. Call and ask them.

take your time,and check around.
Alot of people will say they can do a swap,but most will be hack jobs.
Your car is clean,and has some family memories.I wouldnt go that extreme on your car,maybe a 1.8 with high compressions,port and polished head/shaved head and Weber side draft.

DO NOT go to Engine Labs. Complete ripoff. Cavy engine rebuild for a friends ecotec roughly 8k... machining block, assembly, head porting, install. Nothing installed correctly on the engine either, vacuum lines etc.
